My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet the adorable Ollie!

He is guessed to be a mini aussie, corgi or cattle dog mix (someone did dock his tail before he ended up at the shelter, you can tell it was cut off)

He is a smaller guy at 18lbs

**Energetic guy that will need an active home. He can crush 7 mile hikes with his foster mom, go rollerblading, go for runs and loves to play play play with his foster brother. He does know how to nap and relax after that though too! best of both worlds
**he loves other dogs and having another one in the home would be good for him but not needed
**He is shy with new people at first but once he is with you for the day you become his owner and best friend that he never wants to leave your side
**Being a velcro dog does come with separation anxiety which we have been working very hard on over the last couple of weeks. It has been determined that he will need to be on anxiety meds which has been proven to really help!
**He is good with cats but does want to play with them

He will come fully vetted and with 2 free dog training sessions as all our dogs do

Please note he is Heart Worm positive but this is a non contagious disease and we have already begun treatment (pills). We will cover the full cost of treatment which will be shots starting in Feb. We have had many dogs with HW and are happy to explain what this means in full. No long term effects

More about this rescue

“A Dog Rescue Doing More than Dog Rescue”
We are a young rescue (3rd year anniversary in Jan 2023), but we are here to lead the way of what rescue actually means and set the standard so others can follow.

We are doing more than just rescuing the dog.
We hold monthly group training classes for the community (yes, even those without rescue dogs).

We provide free training for our foster families.
We provide free training for our adoptive families.
We are doing more than just rescuing the dog, we are changing the pattern of surrendering by providing knowledge and education through our community.
It seems like a simple thought of course, but one that many rescue groups do not follow.
